Tire Width help

Anyone know what the widest tire I can fit on my rims are? I have the redline rims which are 20x8.5. I have 245's right now and want to have a wider stance without using spacers. Thanks!

It really depends on the brand, as some run wider than others in the same listed size. I've seen some 275's that weren't hardly any wider than some 255's, and so on so on....

Lets just say that i'm gonna continue to run Eagle F1's since that's what everyone is probably familiar with because they come stock.

Dont want to get new wheels since I have the redline ones. just wanted to see how wide I could go in the back. I think 265 is the max I can go. 255 if I wanted to be extra safe about it.

255 is what some SS guys do up front, where we have 8.5" wheels.

I run 255/40/20 in the front and 285/35/20 in the rear, Michelin PS4S on stock 2SS wheels (8.5 and 9.5).

You could maybe go up a notch to 265 and 295 on stock wheels, but that's already going to stretch it (sic).
